Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether entecavir treatment increases the incidence of lactic acidosis compared to another nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI), lamivudine, and/or no NRTI treatment, in patients with cirrhosis or hepatic failure whose Model for End stage Liver Disease (MELD) scores are over 18.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Incidence of Elevated Venous Lactate Levels More Than 2 mmol/L of Any Etiology
incidence of elevated venous lactate levels more than 2 mmol/L of any etiology until development of lactic acidosis, orthotropic liver transplantation (OLT), death, or improvement of hepatic or renal function to MELD score less than 18 and and participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 weeks.
participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 weeks
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Incidence of Elevated Venous Lactate Levels More Than 2 mmol/L Directly Related to NRTI
Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 weeks
Incidence of Elevated Venous Lactate Levels More Than 2 mmol/L Caused by Etiologies Other Than NTRIs
Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 weeks
Frequency of Concomitant Prescribed Medications Possibly Associated With Lactic Acidosis Other Than NTRIs
Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 weeks
Arterial pH and Anion Gap in Cases With Elevated Blood Lactate Levels (at the Time of Detection and Peak Levels
Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 weeks
Overall OLT-free Survival
Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay or outpatients visit, an expected average of 12 months
Study Arms (3)
entecavir
EXPERIMENTALOral 0.5mg/day until development of lactic acidosis, OLT, death, or improvement of hepatic or renal function to MELD score less than 18. Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 weeks.
lamivudine
ACTIVE COMPARATOROral 100mg/day lamivudine until development of lactic acidosis, OLT, death, or improvement of hepatic or renal function to MELD score less than 18. Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 weeks.
no NRTI group
NO INTERVENTIONhepatitis C virus associated LC patients for the calculation of lactic acidosis incidence
Interventions
entecavir: 0.5mg/day p.o until development of lactic acidosis, OLT, death, or improvement of hepatic or renal function to MELD score less than 18 and participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 weeks. lamivudine: 100mg/day p.o until development of lactic acidosis, OLT, death, or improvement of hepatic or renal function to MELD score less than 18 and and participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 8 weeks.
